OIL-BURNER STOVE.

Specification of Letters Patent. Patented J 1111 3 1'7, 1919,,

Application filed April 22, 1918. Serial No. 229,953.

T 0 all whom it may concern:

Be it known that I, WALTER T. FLING, a citizen of the United States, residing at Savannah, in the county of Andrew and State of Missouri, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in Oil-Burner Stoves; and I do hereby declare the following to be a full, clear, and exact description of the invention,such as will enable others skilled in the art to which it appertains to make and use the same.

This invention relates to oil burner stoves for heating purposes and has for its primary object to provide improved means for blending gas, derived from kerosene, distillate or gasolene, with air, for use in heating in, such a manner as to produce a greater number of heat units from these materials than has heretofore been possible, whereby a great reduction in the cost of heating has been effected.

A further object of the invention is to generally improve and economize in the construction of stoves of this class, while adding to their effectiveness.

With these objects in View, the invention consists in the improved construction, arrangement and combination of parts hereinafter fully described and afterward particularly claimed.

In order that the construction and opera- .tion thereof may be readily comprehended, I have illustrated an approved and pre ferred embodiment of my invention, and modifications of some of the parts thereof, in the accompanying drawings, and will now proceed to fully and specifically describe the same in connection with said drawings, in which- Figure 1 represents a View of my improved stove in sideelevation, parts being broken away and the lower portion shown in central vertical section,

Fig. 2, a sectionalview taken on a vertical plane cutting centrally through the stove,

Fig. 3, a sectional view taken on the horizontal plane indicated b the broken line 3-3, of Fig. 2, looking ownward as indicated by the arrows,

Fig. 4, a top plan viewof the burner, or generator, 7

Fig. 5, a vertical sectional view of the same,

Fig. 6, a bottom plan view of the tubular body of the burner,

Fig. 7 a top plan view of the supporting pan of the burner,

Fig. 8, a top plan view of the cast iron, noise reducing plate,

Fig. 9, a vertical sectional view thereof taken on the transverse plane indicated by the broken line 99 of Fig. 8,

Fig. 10, a detail sectional view of a moditication, showing, in elevation, an asbestos mantle which might be substituted for the plate of Figs. 8 and 9 and shown as located above a sectional view of a part of the burner,

Fig. 11, a top plan view of a modified form of burner, and

Fig. 12, a vertical sectional View of the same.

Like reference characters indicate the same parts wherever they occur in any of the several figures of the drawings.

Referring specifically to the drawings 1 indicates the main body of the stove preferably of sheet iron and square in form although this form, or material, or both, may be varied at will, in which body is a bottom 2, a top 3 and a transverse horizontal par- .tition 4, and through which body and the partition, top and bottom thereof, pass a series of vertical tubes 5, open at bottom and top to permit of the passage of air therethrough to be heated. At 6 is a ring shaped tank or pan which rests upon the partition or shelf it, over an opening 7 therein, said pan having an outer rim 8 and an inner rim 9, thelatter being notched at 10 in its inner opposite sides.

, The burner receiver or tubular body is indicated at 11 and is provided at its lower end with a flange 12 and parallel therewith and slightly above said flange with ears 13, and a flange 16 projecting around the body at a slight distance below the upper end thereof,

.these constructions being particularly illustrated in Figs. 5 and 6.

The body 11 is slightly conical, or tapered being narrowed from its lower to its upper end, and in assembling the parts, it is passed upward through the central opening 15, Fig. 7, of the pan 6, until the ears 13 have passed through the notches 10 and the flange 12 rests under the flange 9 of the pan, when it is turned slightly to cause the ears to rest upon the top of the flange 9 and to clamp the said flange between the ears and the flange 12.

through It obvious that instead of passing the top thereof is a bracket 17 which is shaped to supportvoil tanks 18 and 19, from the lower one of which depends a pipe 20 from which extends a horizontal pipe 21 through the walls 1 of the stove to a point adjacent the body 11 from whence extends upward a pipe 22 to the level of the top of the body 11 and there connects with a: pipe 23 of a horizontal vaporizer comprising pipes :23, 24c and 25- as most plainly shown in Figs. at and 5, said vaporizer pipes being connected and supported by a plate 26 which has a central opening 27 to fit over the upper end of body 11 and to rest upon the flange 16.

From the pipe 25 extends downwardly a pipe 28 which has a horizontal branch 29 passing through the wall of the body 11 to a point in about the vertical axis of said body upon which is carried the burner 30.

Above the burner body 11 is abattle plate 31 which is of inverted saucer shape and held adjustably on a vertical rod 32 by a set screw 33, said bar passing upward through the top of the stove and through a head 34, being supported adjustably as to height by a nut or washer 35 threaded there- 011 above the head.

At the lower end of the rod 32, below and in the saucer-shaped bafile plate, is a noise reducing plate 36 having a series of slots 37 with triangular bars 38 between them.

Depending from the partition t inside the stove and below the opening 7 therein, is an air intake structure 39 which communica-tes with the burner through the opening 7, said structure 39 being inclosedin a box lOhaving an opening' ll leading to an outer chamber 42 and thence through an opening 43 to the chimney. From this box 40 a down draft pipe 50 extends upward within the stove casing, as shown in Fig. 1.

In the modification illustrated in F ig." 10 I' show an asbestos mantle A l which might be substituted for the battle plate hereinbefore described and in Figs. 11' and 12 I have illustrated a modified burner, comprising the body of the burner divided into two, marked 11 and 11 having annular flanges 16 to support plate 26 with openings 27 27 to receive the upper ends of 11 and 11 and the generator 23, 24, 25 having depending pipes 28 and 28 with horizontal branches 29 and 29 'leading to burner tips 30 and 30".

In operation, oil being placed pan 6, oil passes from tanks 18 and 19 through pipes 20, 21 and 22 and thence through the generator or vaporizer 23', 24, 25, and down pipe 28 to pipe 29 and to burner tip 30. I

. The flange trom theburner tip 30, heats the generator 23, 24 and 25, vaporizing the oil passing through to the burner, and thence passes "up to be spread by the bafile plate 31, While the flame arising from burning oil in pan 6 heats the outside of the body 11 and the pipes of the generator, and also the air in the stove, heating also the air passing through pipes 5 to the air of the room, the roaring noise of the flame being very greatly reduced by the plate Suitable valves are provided such as a cut-off valve all at junction of pipes 20, 21, and a drain valve-4 5 the same place, the uses of which are obvious.

The operation of the described modification will be readily understood from the foregoing. i I

Having-thus fully described my invention; what I claim as new and desire to stcure by Letters Patent of the United States is: i

. l. A stove of'the character described eom prising a body having top, bottom and a middle horizontal partitionhaving a central opening, a ring shaped tank on the partition over said opening, a burner body open at top and bottom and supported on said tank, a burner tip in the body, and means for supplying oil to the burner tip,
